A L O T
December 31, 2008
Yesterday was my last day of work at my place of employment for the last 4 and a half years. It was an uneventful day. The people that hugged and kissed me were the corner coffee cart guy, actually he gave me a free coffee, the mail lady, the night porter, the day porter and the lobby attendant. The four people I had contact with at our printer were sincerely sad to here it was my last day. They made my job more enjoyable.
To celebrate, I had a physical scheduled with Dr. R. at 4:30pm.
Dr. R. was recommended by a good friend and he turned out to be the doctor I always wanted and will probably soon loose because of a change in health insurance. His office is off of Washington Square Park and I feel as if I am sitting in a doctors office located on Main Street USA. The office and medical furniture was his fathers. And he is hysterical and I can’t help but see Jackie Mason when I look at him.
He asked some questions and then motioned to the scale. I said, “Look Dr. R, I just lost my job. Do you want to push me over the edge?” He laughed and asked, “Give me a round about number for your weight.” I answered, ” A L O T”. More laughter, alot of it.
Today my husband and I saw Marley and Me. Five hours later my eyes are still swollen. I had tears in my eyes during the opening scene and the REM song about happy people made me feel that all is possible in the world.
Good news, Bride Wars opens January 9th. I have it marked down in my calendar.
Happy New Years!
